    My Windows Explorer Keeps Crashing

    Why I think it's not working

    • I'm on a vacation in a different country
    • Downloaded a app titled CC Cleaner to get rid of duplicate photos
    • Downloaded a app titled Duplicate Photos Fixer to get rid of duplicate photos (10 gigabyte of photos and videos have been erased from hard drive

    Current Situation:

    I have to move photos and videos from my iphone to my hard drive via my toshiba notebook but my windows explorer keeps crashing.

    I have opened task manager, went to files located above the processes, typed in explorer.exe and ran task manager using administrative privilages. Turned off the computer and turned it back on. Windows explorer worked for about 10-20 minutes but the problem persists.

    Can someone help me find a solution? Thanks for Reading!

    :)

    Windows explorer crashing

    Hi,

    I am having the same problem as the OP in this thread.
    Windows Explorer crashes whenever I open my external HDD or thumb drive in explorer..

    I have tried the fixes listed in the above thread and I am getting the same error message as 'ktadie' (post 16). I think this is because I am running Windows 7 Professional. Windows explorer crashes when I open my 'Films' folder on my brand new 2tb external HDD. I have about 300 .avi files in this folder and some of the .avi files are several years old.

    In short I believe I need the same fix given by 'Wile E' (post 7) but updated for Windows 7 Professional.

    Thanks in advance.

    Windows Explorer crashes and thumbnails problem

    Hi, I hope you can help me.
    Windows Explorer is no longer showing thumbnails on files played by Windows Media Player. I've run cmd and regsvr32 shmedia.dll and regsvr32 shimgvw.dll. That seemed to solve the problem...but it created a different one. Now when I try to open a folder on an external hard drive it crashes. I read in an old 2008 post it was an avi file causing the problem and suggested the run cmd regsvr32 /u shmedia.dll. That solved the opening problem but recreated the thumbnail problem. Any help to achieve both functions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Windows Explorer Keeps Crashing

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?
